Evaluation of recurrence, mortality and treatment complications of oral squamous cell carcinoma in public health centers in Shiraz during 2010 to 2020. BMC Oral Health 2023; 23:341. [PMID: 37254138 DOI: 10.1186/s12903-023-03071-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/09/2023] [Accepted: 05/22/2023] [Indexed: 06/01/2023] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Oral Squamous cell Carcinoma (OSCC) is the most common oral cancer and is treated with surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Various complications of treatment include xerostomia, mucositis, and trismus, which affect patients' quality of life. The aim of this study is to evaluate the mortality, recurrence rate and prevalence of oral complications in treated patients. METHOD AND MATERIALS This cross-sectional study reviewed 326 cases of patients with OSCC who were referred to public health centers in Shiraz (Khalili Hospital and Dental School) from 2010 to 2020. All patients were contacted, and the survivors were called and examined by an oral physician. A medical record was created for them, including demographic information, location of the lesion, type of treatment, history of recurrence, metastasis and oral complications. RESULTS 53.5% of patients were male and 46.5% were female. The mean age of patients was 58.68 years. Mortality and recurrence rate was respectively 49.8% and 17.8%. The most common location of the lesion was tongue (64%). Surgery was done for all patients. 97.4% of patients complained of xerostomia, 46.2% of mucositis and 44.3% of trismus. CONCLUSION The most common complications of treatment are xerostomia, mucositis, and trismus, respectively. Frequent and regular follow-ups and supportive therapies reduce these complications and improve patients' quality of life.

Abstract
We investigated the differences in prognosis according to the type of healthcare coverage of patients with oral and oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OOSCC). This study included 875 medical records. Patients covered by the publicly funded Unified Health System (SUS) had a low educational level, with advanced T stage and delayed treatment initiation. Multivariate analyses revealed an association between T stage (p = .035) and poor prognosis in oral squamous cell carcinoma, and age (p = .029) in oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma. Surgical treatment (p = .036) and marital status (p = .015) were considered predictors of better prognosis in OOSCC. Exclusive SUS-dependency can be considered an indirect prognostic factor for OOSCC.

Abstract
Oral cancer is the fourth most common type of cancer among males in Taiwan, and the prognosis for patients with advanced-stage oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) remains poor. The present study investigated the prognostic value of three DNA repair genes, namely excision repair cross-complementing group 1 (ERCC1), ERCC2 and X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1) in OSCC. The protein expression levels of XRCC1, ERCC1 and ERCC2 in oral cell lines were analyzed via western blotting and immunohistochemistry using samples from 98 patients with biopsy-proven OSCC, while the χ2 test was used to analyze the clinicopathological association. Kaplan-Meier estimates were used to determine the prognostic value of XRCC1, ERCC1 and ERCC2 for overall survival, and the log-rank test was used to evaluate the significance of differences. Multivariate analysis revealed a positive association between ERCC2 expression and OSCC recurrence (19.64-fold; 95% CI, 5.00-77.1; P<0.001). In addition, the high protein expression levels of XRCC1, ERCC1 and ERCC2 were associated with poor disease-free and overall survival rates. Therefore, the present study suggested that high ERCC2 expression may be a risk factor for OSCC recurrence.

Clinical-pathological and sociodemographic factors associated with the distant metastasis and overall survival of oral cavity and oropharynx squamous cell carcinoma. Med Oral Patol Oral Cir Bucal 2020; 25:e375-e382. [PMID: 32271320 PMCID: PMC7211363 DOI: 10.4317/medoral.23410] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/25/2019] [Accepted: 03/09/2020] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of clinical-pathological and sociodemographic factors on the prevalence of distant metastasis (DM) and overall survival in patients with oral cavity and oropharynx squamous cell carcinoma (OOSCC). MATERIAL AND METHODS Cross-sectional study based on the records of 404 OOSCC patients evaluated for DM, covering the period 2000-2014. We analysed the influence of age, sex, level of schooling, primary tumor subsite, treatment, marital status, family history of cancer, history of smoking and alcohol consumption, type of health care coverage (private vs. public) and overall survival. Findings were submitted to Fisher's exact test, Pearson's chi-squared test, Mantel-Cox log-rank testing and multinomial and Cox regression analysis (SPSS v. 20.0; p<0.05). RESULTS The prevalence of DM was 5.4% (22/404). The respiratory tract was the most affected DM site (n=9; 40.9%). Male sex (p=0.049), oropharyngeal primary tumor (p=0.008), stage T3-4 (p=0.022), lymph node metastasis (N+) (p<0.001) and palliative treatment (p=0.005) were directly associated with DM. Patients with oral primary tumours (p=0.343) and primary oropharyngeal tumours (p=0.242) did not differ significantly with regard to the prevalence of DM. N+ was an independent risk factor for DM (p=0.017). Five variables independently reduced overall survival: male sex (p=0.035), age >65 years (p=0.046), indigenous/brown racial type (p=0.045), palliative treatment (p=0.035) and DM (p=0.048). CONCLUSIONS Lymph node metastasis independently increased the prevalence of DM and, along with male sex, older age, brown racial type and palliative treatment, was independently associated with poor prognosis in patients with OOSCC.
